February was a special month for the Masters of the Universe Classics line. So special in fact that I had to break the figure reviews into a two part extravaganza! After all, Modulok and Glimmer are two very important releases that deserve their own articles. I also am slightly delayed with my musings on these two figures, but the articles are finally here along with some fun pictures! So let’s look at the first character from February: Modulok. Modulok. Modulok!!!

Modulok came packed in a box. No blister or card needed for this unique figure; just a nice box with image …

A whole New Year is upon us and before the 2014 Masters of the Universe Classics subscription kicks in, I thought it would be fun to take a look at a 2013 release: Sea Hawk! This heroic Etherian Pirate has long been on many a fan’s wish lists, and in 2013 Mattel made those wishes come true. Released as the special subscriber only figure from the Filmation mini sub, Sea Hawk somehow made it over to my well manicured hands. (Thank you eBay.) Let’s look!

Before we get into the fun details of the figure, I thought it would be important …

It has been awhile, hasn’t it? There have been a good number of Masters of the Universe Classics released in the last few months, but I have been unable to review them. There is a reason for that, one that I will get into soon. Before I do, I thought it would be nice to take a look at the October MOTUC release: Mantenna!

I want to start with showing what was printed on the white mailer box: instructions for creating Mantenna’s eye effect. The way in which the Four Horsemen designed Mantenna was pure genius.

As the hot summer days wind down to the fall, Nerd Society is looking at the last hot Masters of the Universe Classics releases for August. First up we are going to be looking at the Enchantress who hypnotizes: Castaspella! For years fans have been asking for her, and Mattel finally fulfilled many fan’s dreams.

I have talked about Castaspella before on NS. She has appeared as a Vintage Toy of the Month awhile back, so to have the chance to look over her new release is a real treat. Also, there will be a side by side view from the …

With the 2013 San Diego Comic Con starting this week, numerous toy companies are going to be unveiling all kinds of new products. I thought the July Vintage Toy of the Month could be a prelude to a hopefully exciting set of reveals from the Masters of the Universe Classics line by Mattel. Read on for a look at Mermista from the Princess of Power line and let’s cross our fingers that Mattel shows off all kinds of cool MOTUC surprises, especially the most mist-i-fying mermaid ever.

Mermista was a part of the second series of POP action dolls. The card …

As we step into the hotter months of the year, Masters of the Universe Classics also heats things up with long awaited releases all summer long! June kicks everything off with the first ever release of Octavia, the wicked tentacle-swinging warrior!

Let’s just jump right into it! Octavia comes packed in the standard MOTUC packaging. Even in the package, this is a figure that just looks amazing. Octavia appeared in a few episodes of the She-Ra cartoon, but she was never released as a figure until now. The wait has been worth it.

Sometimes you just have to go for it, you have to take something that you want to make better and get risky by applying paint, or trying your hand at sculpting; maybe even sew something up to enhance the piece to your liking…

My first customized action figure (since I was a kid). I chose Catra from the Masters of the Universe Classics line. Now, Catra was nice to begin with, sculpted in the form of the 80’s Filmation cartoon character from She-Ra, Princess of Power. However, I really wasn’t happy deep down inside; so what to do? I’ve always been …

This all new Vintage Toy of the Month is in honor of a recent surprise at this past weekend’s New York Toy Fair. Castaspella is getting an all new release in the Masters of the Universe Classics line, and what better way to celebrate than by checking out her vintage counterpart? Back in the day the Princess of Power toy line could be found everywhere. I remember finding POP toys for sale at the grocery store, corner drugstore, even the crafts store. Toy stores were not the only place to find She-Ra and her friends. This is how I would come …

It is time for a look at the start of an all new year for Masters of the Universe Classics! 2013 is seeing the start of a really special year for MOTUC fans with the release of Netossa a member of the Great Rebellion. Netossa is the captivating beauty from Etheria and shows just what makes the Princess of Power characters so special to the MOTUC line.

Before we get to the figure, it is important for a brief toy history lesson to truly understand why Netossa’s release is so important. There was once a time in the not so distant …

That’s right, it’s the end of 2012 and I figured I would do a listing of MY OWN top 10 toys that I got this year—regardless of their original release date.

Lets begin with…

10: Stinkor, from Masters of the Universe Classics! That’s right, the Stink-man is just awesome and has a fan base to match (probably) Coming with enough accessories to dress him up as either the 200X version of the character or the 80’s version; Stinkor comes complete with his orange armor, Blue shield, blue stink-gun, blue gas mask and blue stink tanks. Also included is either a …
